ancientnoise Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Div A - Round 1 AH13STU beats ancientnoise by resignation. Eyed each other up in the opening. Eyed each other up in the middle game. Then a huge blunder from me gifting a bishop. Hanging-on-by-the fingernails stuff from me after that, and my opponent closed it out expertly. Well played @Leicesterlichtie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 (edited) Division A Round 3 Result Dearyme defeats stewartmathers This was really a tale of not getting castled when you ought too. Stewartmathers went on the offensive and pushed at the centre. However, having all my pieces developed, I knew there had to be a way to win material. In the end Stu went in for a line that looked like he won the exchange (Bishop for Rook) only for his King to get checked and have to go on a walk to nowhere resulting in his Queen having to sacrifice herself to save her husband. Good game mate. If you short castle rather than e5 it's a totally different game. Edited May 20, 2023 by Trogdor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Division A Round 5 Result Dearyme defeats PnBMathematics There wasn't much in this I had managed to nab a pawn in the opening. I had Bishop for Knight as well but double pawns but felt I had a slight edge. Until PnB forgot about my dark square Bishop on h6 and played a Rook onto c8 (which looked natural to attack the undefended c3 pawn). I snaffled the Rook and then was comfortably ahead going into an ending. Good game, you've improved a lot since we first played on here! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

free beer Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Division A - Round 6 stewartmathers loses to PurpleKangaroo89 by checkmate Wondered where the match had disappeared to, only to find I have been mated. Note to self - to concentrate a bit more for the remainder of the season. Had left my king open to attack through bad pawn management, so would likely have suffered for it anyway. Well played! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aim Here Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Division A, Round 5 No doubt it's already a bad day for AlbinoRov, but I helped make it slightly worse by taking advantage of a couple of smallish mistakes and then squeezing him in the endgame with an extra knight and a positional advantage.

Guest Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Division B Round 7 was an easy win for RB Watson after Incoming Exile blunders his queen before morning caffeine...... I usually replay the game from the start when returning to it after a break, but jumped straight in with two left feet this morning. In fairness RB was already ahead and my risky approach to the game had landed me in trouble. Was so annoyed at my blunder after 'sleeping on it' that I threw the towel in after 15 moves. Cheers for the game RB. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziggy Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Div B Round 7 Ziggy beats Arabjoe by checkmate. An unusual choice of defence by my opponent, I think playing f6 & Bd6 was always going to cause you problems and I should have probably taken advantage a bit earlier than I did. thanks for the game mate! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
